Carol Singer posted extracts from Thursday's New York Times. I don't
know if the following quote struck others the way that it did me:
>DARTMOUTH WOMEN - They're undefeated after 7 games. Coach Crowe said,
>"I'm surprised because we lost much firepower from last year." The
>current teams's strongest player may be Sarah Tueting, a freshman goalie
>from Winnetka, IL, who has a .990 save percentage and a 0.49 gaa.
A .990 save percentage is certainly amazing. However, if it is coupled
with a 0.49 gaa, this means that Sarah Tueting faced an average of 49
shots a game. That seems like a very high number of shots to be facing
on average for any goalie which makes the performance more astounding.
I saw the NYT article myself and these indeed are the figures that
were reported. I wonder if they are correct.
